The 2007–2008 Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon 2.4 JTDM 20v Q4 brings substantial diesel performance to the 159's five-door wagon body. Its 2.4-liter turbocharged inline-five produces 207 hp at 4,000 rpm and 295 lb-ft of torque at 1,500 rpm, with a six-speed manual transmission sending power to all four wheels. A 139 mph top speed and 8.3-second 0–60 mph time give this Q4 considerably more performance than its practical wagon proportions might suggest.
Beyond its strong engine, the Q4 retains the useful characteristics of the Sportwagon, offering seating for five and 15.7–43.6 cubic feet of luggage space. The chassis pairs double-wishbone front suspension with a multi-link rear arrangement, while the 20-valve diesel uses common-rail injection and a transverse front-engine layout. With 30.6 mpg combined economy and a 565-mile listed range, it combines all-weather traction, long-distance usability and strong five-cylinder diesel performance in one package.
